Chapter 2

Charlie's eyes opened slowly, she blushed when she realised she had fallen asleep directly after giving the best orgasm she could. Gently lifting her head to see the wonder that is Joey, Charlie saw the post-it-notes and knew she had to investigate. Jostling her body slowly away from Joey's embrace Charlie rose to her feet, she was a little unsteady 'and that was just from being the giver!' She thought to herself.
After a few tears had escaped her blue lagoon like eyes, she realised what she had done and the shock hit her. In what seemed like a matter of seconds she had put on one of Joey's tops, a white vest top and grabbed up her torn work shirt. As fast as she could she got in her car buckled up and started the engine, she headed home. Joey awoke feeling the coldness creeping thru her body, she knew Charlie was gone. A wave of fear and wanting flowed through her mind, what had really happened there she was elated and Charlie had fled. Confusion clouded her emotions she had to find her and talk to her as soon as she could.
Without hesitation she was alert and on her feet throwing on anything to hand, as she was near enough packed. She looked at herself in the mirror 'humph not quite what I wanted to look like but I'm sure it'll be ok' she mused. She was wearing her green t-shirt and black cargo pants, she didn't like the green t-shirt anymore after Charlie ran from her on that earth shattering day on the boat. Picking up her keys she left the pokey little room heading over to Leah's wishing the Charlie would be there and willing to talk.
Walking up to the back door Joey raised her arm made a fist and knocked on the door lightly…..waiting for a reply. Seeing a shadow approach Joey felt the lump rise in her throat knowing from the shape it was Charlie. Charlie reached for the handle and took a deep breath, pulling the door open she couldn't help but see the pain in Joey's eyes.

"I'm sorry Joe, I just didn't know what to do" , she stared to say "I looked at you and knew that I loved you but once I was out of your embrace……I …..I…I just had to run" She looked away unable to keep the fighting tears in. Joey placed her hand upon the wetting cheek trying to capture each tear before they cascaded to the floor. Charlie lent into Joey's hand feeling the warmth of her skin against her clammy cheek.

"it's ok Charlie but I wish you could have stayed and talked to me, that was the scariest thing earlier. I woke up and you were gone! It felt like someone had ripped a limb from me. Was it not…." Joey cleared her throat "good for you?" She knew once she had said this she didn't want to hear the answer waiting. Charlie moved Joey's hand and entwined their fingers together and lead Joey into the lounge. Gesturing to the comfort of the sofa they sat, with their hands never parting.

"Joey it was the most amazing time of my life. I got lost in you, with you, wanting you and I just got spooked. Seeing the way I made you feel filled me with so much heartfelt love it was undeniable, but then when I read how it made you feel it became real." Joey placed her free hand on Charlie's thigh feeling the shiver this contact made she jerked it away, only for Charlie to place it back there with her hand delicately on top. This raised Joey's hopes up but not too high as she knew it could change in an instant. Charlie saw the hope rise and fall out of Joey's eye's, this hurt her more and made her speak.

"Joey I was scared, so scared I ran….I know I'm a coward." She looked deep into those brown eyes and continued. "I just know that it's not going to be easy sweetheart, we're going to endure some really hard times and all I want are goodtimes with you!" Joey began to open her mouth to voice a reply but Charlie needed to continue to say this out loud. "I have never been one to show their emotions Joe but when I'm with you they seem to flow out of every part of me without me even knowing. As you know I don't really know what this all means, I have to tell Ruby and Leah but I'm not sure what to say or how to say it. I'm in love with you and only you Joey!" She couldn't resist and had to taste her leaning forward with such a wave of want their lips connected, sending a bolt of electricity through them both. The kiss deepened as Charlie's tongue seeked entrance to Joey's mouth she obliged parting her lips accordingly. Needing to taste each other they both forgot where they were and with that a noise came from the kitchen.
They both sat upright, Charlie still keeping a tight grip of Joey's hand. "Hello Charlie are you in?" Charlie sighed she had forgotten that Colleen was coming round to collect some clothes for the charity table top. "We're in here Colleen" Charlie aided the nosey lady into the lounge, Colleen saw how Charlie was holding Joey's hand and so asked "Joey is everything ok?", Joey replied with a nod and taking from this motion Charlie quickly pointed out the bag for her to take, "That's all we can manage I'm afraid, but like they say every little helps. If there's nothing else would you mind letting yourself out please" Charlie wanted to be with only Joey now and didn't care for how harsh she sounded.

"Right where were we" Joey said leaning forward, only to be halted by Charlie.
"Joe before we get carried away and caught, which we more than likely will," she let a little chuckle escape " I need you to know something" Joey asked "What is it Charlie you're making me nervous?"

"Joey I want to tell people I really do but right now I'm enjoying it being us and I might sound jealous but I want to keep you to myself for a while. I'll tell Ruby and Leah that we're a couple but not to ask questions as it's new for us as well as them. That way we don't have to sneak around the house and we can be together and never stop touching" Joey was amazed with this speech she had never wanted to hold Charlie more. Taking a second look at the brunette beauty she realised something…

"Charlie….is that mine?" she said pointing to the white vest top. Charlie looked down and nodded her reply. This made Joey giggle, Charlie wanted to know what was funny but instead began to laugh herself. They were both rolling around in fits together this is when Joey calmed down a little and admitted what was funny.

"Charlie that top……..that top is your's! I kinda took it when I left here as a keepsake and a way to keep you near to me." Joey could feel the heat rising in her cheeks as she blushed a crimson red. Charlie started to laugh again, Joey didn't like this until she felt the warmth of Charlie's arms holding her in am embrace, lightly kissing Joey along her collarbone. Joey started to melt away loosing herself in lust and passion, feeling the warmth rise in her she rummaged for Charlies hand and started to guide her to the bedroom, Joey knew exactly what she wanted to do and wasn't gonna let anyone interupt her this time………….

Now it's time for Joey to return the favour more in Chapter 3!!!
